Finally have a day for myself.. Thought I could stay home the whole day to rest but my dad he brought me to east coast and we had a walk.. then dinner.. then Mount Faber.. Feel that our relationship is so strong now.. I'm so proud of him, I think he's a strong man. Though I don't have everything, but I know he's done the best he knew how to. I know he loves us more than anything else on planet earth and that's more than enough.

Know what! My dad just told me that he's bringing me to Johor to a beach resort! so cool can.. but it's on 7,8 n 9.. meaning I have to miss celebrating the church anniversary as well as.. national day? lol.. and my school's sports day.. Also, my common test falls on the same week.. zz.. HOW.. He told me I can bring along my friends too if i want.. SO COOL la.. BEACH leh! Haven't seen the sea for like ages.. Since the first week of june at sentosa.. So jing tui liang nan now haha.. most prob i'll bring along my work as well if i'm going.. pathetic right. But these few days I feel like the most blessed person in the world. My dad he just keeps giving me money and buying me stuff.. Like a BED, a comfy blanket, bedspread, a shirt, a Bible and more food. Haha.. I think God is just so amazing. I remember crying so much after I pleged.. And true enough, the law of harvest never fails. To be more precise, I can stand strong on God's promises without fear. And ya, I can't fathom how anyone can leave God after experiencing His unconditional love.

Tired day.. School was a bit more fun cos Ben brought his violin. I played it for the first time and it was fun! Kind of addictive.. but i don't really like the squeaky sound.. haha.. Well, went to a social service centre at tiong bahru with my class and another one.. The centre is catered mainly for the delinquent and troubled youths.. didn't turn out as i expected it to be but i came to know more about social work, sth which i'm very interested in. But it's a shame to see a girl who kept correcting the speaker's pronounciation while he was speaking. stuck up la. what's the big fuss about it.. words like 'cirque' and another french word.. and another girl asked questions like she was so suggestive of a fight. The speaker had to ask her with a hint of sacarsm, "Are you from the debate?" I could sympathize with the speaker.. and I admire his tolerance. It's no wonder people don't have a good impression of jc kids and I can't disagree too. The reason why I'm so interested in social work and counselling is because part of me have gone through the stuff that the people have gone through.. and I can more or less empathize with them. I have tasted the bitterness of hardship and I know I've grown and become stronger after that. I wanna make use of my experience to help them cope with theirs. Nothing in life is ever wasted ya. So it IRKS and disgust me when insensitive people make bad remarks about stuff like that... Well, let's see who has the last laugh.

My mood was slammed after the trip there and I felt really tired.. But I garnered enough strength to go for Ravi's band performance at nyjc... It was good, sort of lifted me up a little.. NY, the school that jeered us during the girls' 'A' division volleyball match, looks rather like a CC to me. But it's a beautiful school. Like it. Oh ya and it's friday today! yay.

School was not that bad today. =) Had quite a bit of fun laughing at my chem lecturer.. She kmows where to tickle our funny bones.. Her favourite words are "suarcture" (structure), "electron croud" (cloud) and today she introduced us something new, "involring" (involving) LOL~ Anyway, that aside..

Today i was studying in church at ard 6 plus when Bird called me and told me sth which I couldn't help but to exclaimed loudly.. She told me she saw RANDELL TAN at PS.. not only that.. he was with melody chan!! Sigh.. Forever her.. Let's wait for their confession. Sth uplifting, she told me he is better looking on screen.. hehe..

Sometimes, it's just so hard to love the people around us. Is that a result of being self-centered? When we are only concerned about ourselves, we become myopic to the circumstances around us and thus do not look beyond our own comfort zone. Like what Pst Kong said, we should remove the "I" axles, where everything revolves around ourselves, and instead, replace it with a "God" axles, where we revolve around God. This way we can be able to look at things the way God looks at things.. Our hearts will begin to grow bigger.. We become more forgiving as trivial matters do not bother us much..

-

Often, the world doesn't understand the things we do. They see us as a bunch of fanatics who have gone 'crazy' for God. It hurts me so.. Is God so hard to understand? He is just someone who loves us like no one else can.. Someone who gave His only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross so as to establish a relationship with us, the sinners, who don't even deserve the kind of love He gives.. Is this so hard to accept? God is constantly knocking on the doors of our hearts, waiting ever so patiently for us to open just a bit for Him to enter.. I remember a song that goes like this..

"Make my heart Your home

It's a place where You can come and stay

My heart's Your home

Live in me

You want only the best

For me

Come home"

Nice.. =) And like what Pst Kong always say "We have nothing to lose, but everything to gain." Amen!

Couldn't sleep last night.. So I lay on the bed, with thousands of thoughts flashing through my mind.. Thoughts about God, friends, studies.. and erm.. something else hehe.. Out of a sudden I just had an inspiration to write a song. So I went to take my hp to type in the lyrics.

It goes like this..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hold on tight unto Jesus

He will never let you go

In the rough waves of your life

Know that He is in control

-

Jesus reigns above all storms

I don't have to be afraid

Look to Him and He'll be there

Beside me and through it all

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your love

It comforts me

Your peace

It stills my heart

Your strength

It pushes me on

I'm honoured Lord

To be under Your arms

I'm amazed

At the wonderous works of Your hands

And...

I'm simply happy. =)

haha Henry commented that my previous entry is like my own psalm hahaa.. YA!!! Praises from my heart! =) Today I was taught a few life lessons in school.. During PE, my teacher told us "Everyone can run, it's all in the mind." And during GP, Sally chua told us the meaning of a "challenge", it is a problem to be overcome. Both of these link me to our life journey. Life is a marathon in which everyone is involved. Some may be fast, some may be slow, and some may even stop at a point. The fact that it's a marathon indicates that you're not running alone. When you feel like you can't run anymore, your friends will be your supporters who cheer and encourage you on. But ultimately it's still your choice to want to fight on and continue the race. I think there is a greater battle up there (in your mind) than your circumstances. And once you can overcome that, your marathon will be a smoother and a more enjoyable one. Of course plus the supernatural strength from God, you can leap high above the tallest and seemingly invincible hurdle.

*proudly declare* I'm in a relationship with my Beloved!! I just can't get enough of Him!!! I wake up every morning thinking about Him and all the good things He's done in my life!!! How blessed am I!! No one else can fill my heart like He can! My countenance radiates joy that's overflowing in my heart! And there is certainly none like Him in all the universe!!

I had such a great time singing and worshipping God in the choir!! Love every moment of it! =) And i'm so honoured to be able to sing for the next 2 services for the Arise and Build!! =)

Ya no "full stop" in this entry cos I'm so filled with excitement!!! =)
